Selfish but I don’t drive much so if it replaces pump taxes I’ll actually make out for once.
They will get me other ways I know.
Funny how it only works if you have something to give because the welfare scum give nothing and take it all. Cock sucker - literally
“I think that shows a lot of promise,” Buttigieg said. “If we believe in that so-called user-pays principle, the idea that part of how we pay for roads is you pay based on how much you drive

Oh, the pump taxes will only go up. They are never, and I mean never, going away. If you ever want to see how seriously pump taxes are taken, just put off highway diesel in your commercial vehicle. They don’t pick on gas powered vehicles because getting off highway gasoline isn’t really a thing.

I mix kero in my diesel every winter to stop gelling. I also add 2 cycle oil to it all year to replace the lubricants they removed, just happens to be red. They'd have to send a sample to a lab if they want to prove I was running kero.
Because you need to stay warm. There's a tax for that ya know.

Well then they should apply that concept to other areas as well.
How about public parks. No more just walking in. Pay an entrance fee each time.
Sewer tax should be imposed as well. I'm sure there's people out there using it more than I am. Meter on the flush handle.
Perhaps a TV tax. Watch more, pay more. After all, if you paid more you'd watch less and be healthier, right?

How about a mileage tax on Kamala? The VP is high mileage.
This is what happens when you push for electric cars and people using bicycles instead of SUVs, revenues go down because less fuel is being used. The greenies won’t like their hybrid or electric virtue signaling cars being taxed based upon how many miles they drive.
so this is my question: Governments tax things they don’t want you to do, alcohol, marijuana, alcohol, fuel. Why would/ do They tax wages, and push for mileage tax on virtue signaling vehicles.

They record your mileage on your inspection and it gets reported to the state with your inspection report. You won’t be able to do any of the above. They will just make the mileage be reported to the feds or whatever too.disable speed sensor .. there goes the odometer reading ... plug it back in and reset ecm .. go get inspection .. ohhh you only drove 100 miles this year .. thank you for going greeen .. .. there are other ways to know how fast your driving

I agree. They do tax you on sewer and it is by usage at least in my town they do.
As for the parks I agree. My city is looking for money and we have the niagara River there. Thousands park there weekly when it’s nice out. If they charged $1 or $2 per visit it would make tons of money. City residents $10 per year old fold $5 per year or free if poor. It’s completely under developed down there and could make us a fortune, but it’s a park and they won’t do it.

As an EV owner I think it makes sense to move away from the model of taxing per gallon and moving it to per mile. Pursuant to above I do not expect that we will see taxes withdrawn from gas, as would be fair. Instead this will be a new tax, additional tax
Good I hope this passes.
I must sound like a broken record I hope America gets exactly what they voted for.

I'm trying to figure out how the distance I drive, completely within NYS, is subject to an interstate federal sales tax.
Mostly, because it isn't.

Please correct me if I'm wrong: a fraction of the current Federal gasoline tax subsidizes mass transit. Perhaps it's time for the cities with mass transit systems to pay full fare?
If we go to a mileage based tax ; Would it be based on mileage certified at annual inspection? Mileage recorded on IRS Tax Form? Deductible mileage counted?
Curious, ;Does Nancy Pelosi count the cost of flying her home cross-country every weekend on as income?

what about states that don't require a vehicle inspection, Ohio for example.
and who collects the tax? the inspection station? what happens to full time RV'ers that travel tens of thousands of miles a year?
what about OTR trucks driver, the cost of good just went up, AGAIN.

I didn't read it but won't a mileage tax just replace the "gas" tax once we are all cruising around in the battery operated toy cars of the future because gasoline will be illegal? Or will there also be an amp/hr. tax?

OTR trucks already pay a mileage tax, fuel tax, highway use tax, etc, etc, etc.....
20 years ago I was paying, on average, around 5¢/mile.
And Don't forget about tolls disproportionately higher than cars.
